Orienteering race 1:47:44 [4] 7.5 km (14:22 / km)
shoes: Jalas - Spiked
I had a great time at OCIN meet today. This was the first meet I did in contacts. I used some $10 reading glasses with them. This seemed to work great. First time no moisture problem with my glasses. These last few OCIN meets for me have been great since they have all been new maps for me. Everything is fresh.
I had my usual problems with the first control. I'm always amped and ready to make something happen but that does not always pay off if you don't execute your plan. I lost some time on 8 to 9 overshot control to far N. Also 10 to 11 ran down wrong spur which also had a 2M rootstock. On 13 to 14, I should have taken a bearing but got lazy with the open field. On 15 to 16 I did not execute my route very well and lost a lot of time there.
It was great to see Rob, Brenda and Aidan. I was pleased to see Aidan is now running Green. That will give us more runners on the course and more people for me to discuss routes.
